New Rooms and RESPITE!!!

I'm still having intermittent sad feelings about Mason and Jonah being gone from the house :-( It feels empty. Everybody is spreading out and moving rooms.

Sophia and her machines have been able to stretch out in a master sized room, that Sarah and Max were sharing. We can fit bigger and comfier chairs in there....which will be much easier on our backs when we are holding her for long periods of time :-) It will also help us get some shut eye when she has to sleep upright. It's really comfy in there I swear it's bigger than my first apartment lol :-)

Sarah's is going back upstairs and getting a tv and dvd player, so she's excited.

Michael is getting, can you believe it, his own master size room.....complete with a big flat screen TV, sink, and walk in closet! He's stoked! Wow. Even though he's excited, I wonder if he really knows how lucky he is to basically be living in a hotel room at 10 years old! ;-) Of course we are keeping the bunk beds up, for times when Mason wants to crash here, which Michael is also very excited about :-)

Max going back to the nursery and he's going to have his own space again.....which I'm not sure he's going to like as much as he initially thought. He ended up in our room last night already 😩

Feeling blessed with a beautiful home today :-)

 Sophia's views... (man if someone would have told me when I was living in LA.....that I'd one day live in this paradise!)...



Sophia's view of the Christmas tree her daddy decorated in the backyard ;-)

The big celebration from today however is that Helen started! She is Sophia's amazing new daytime respite nurse, and the state paper work is finally done! She has so much experience with special-needs babies and neurological disorders that I literally had to explain nothing to her! This morning Jason and I went to breakfast and spent an hour-and-a-half talking to each other without getting interrupted. It was Sublime! :-)
